More on the Treacherous DeLong-Bas

Brandeis professor Natana DeLong-Bas is a professional apologist for Saudi Wahhabism – "professional," in the sense that she receives direct funding from the official Saudi elite.

Earlier this month I reported on DeLong-Bas's absolving of Osama Bin Laden from any connection with 9/11.

In Real Clear Politics, Stephen Schwartz reveals further her depiction of " the 'democracy' of terrorist groups like Hamas and the Wahhabi agents in Somalia as superior in achievement to U.S. democratization efforts," and of "Wahhabism as anti-jihad and so benevolent as to be even feminist."

Why should we care, Schwartz asks, about such "'treason of the intellectuals'"? Because it is tantamount to "treason of civilization."
